This is a colloquial way of speaking. It's slang to mean "am/is/are doing." Just think of it as not conjugating the verb "to be"
You usually use it for dramatic effect and want to exaggerate.

I/he/she/they are the pronouns that indicate who is doing something.
When the pronouns are all listed together with "/" between them, it means you would pick which pronoun to use, but it could be anybody (doing the thing).

"smth" is a texting-abbreviation for the word "something."
